Terminology
A domain name is a website address. For eg: facebook.com. The .com is called the domain extension. There are various extensions available and the price of a domain name depends on the extension. It could range between $5 per year and can go as high as $1000/year. The average cost of a domain is $10 – $30 per year. A .com domain usually cost between $10-$15 per year.
In simple terms web hosting is server space or part of a server. It’s similar to the space on a computer’s hard drive, but the server allows your website files to be accessible by anyone on the internet.

Now I will walk you through the entire process, step by step.
Part 1: Domain Check
Decide a domain name, short if possible. ~8-10 characters. Check if its available here. https://infobahn.technology
If you cannot find a .com try something else. When you search our system will recommend some.
Part 2: Choose a hosting package
You must choose a hosting package based on how many visitors are you expecting per month. So basically if you have a good follower base on social media and you plan to promote your website there you must choose a package accordingly. It is said that only 10% of your audience will come to your website. However, you can always start with the basic package and upgrade as you grow.
